Been happening to me as well. Galaxy tab s7 running chrome

Fun fact. Theater owners were reluctant to book a Sci fi film with unknown cast, so Fox set up a deal where Star Wars was tied to an expected blockbuster, The Other Side of Midnight. If you showed one, you needed to show the other. Months later Star Wars was packing them in, while Midnight...

I remember laughing at this when I saw it on opening night. Told my date about it when we went to see it 3 months later, and it had been cut. Embarrassing. I was really surprised that the film had been edited while still in first release.

And will someone yell to open the blast doors?

Is your house located near a power substation? I have seen instances where high voltage transformer grounding can cause a significant voltage potential against grounds that were referenced elsewhere. A fundamental lesson in electronics is that ground is relative, and not an absolute.

I went all out and made a traditional Brit breakfast of Toad in the Hole. This is breakfast sausages browned and then baked in Yorkshire pudding. Topped with onion gravy. It came out perfect, but it definitely was not a hit with the family. I guess I won't be doing that one again 😟

Please take it to the political talk forum. Several discussions going on there.

True that any component can fail, but a quality product has likely had stress testing and failure analysis performed. Possibly even beta testing in user environments. The box we are discussing here was most likely rushed into production as soon as the prototype was operational. Their...

Hate the laugh track. Rest is pretty good.

Here in SE Wisconsin, regular is down under $3. Saw it at $2.92. However premium is still $4.19. Seems a ripoff to me.

I don't buy much anymore, but I do like that once a physical disc is in my hands it is there forever and unchanged (Hans shot first). All the streaming services have titles that come and go, and less popular or dated titles never make it back into rotation. I was looking for a particular disc...

Don't forget the sequel, Heavy Traffic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_Traffic

Monthly is the default. Annual is an option, as is lifetime Lifetime is probably as long as a cable option is available. Spectrum seems to be ready to stop cable and push streaming, which won't work with these boxes. Ultimately the boxes become useless when TIVO stops supporting guide data
